Workplace Revolution is back and better than ever! Andrea Brummett is joined by Jason Cochran, new host of Working Forward, to talk about the evolving role of EQ in the workplace.

Andrea breaks down the five key components of EQ—self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills—giving real-world insights into why these skills are essential in today's rapidly changing work environment. We also dive deep into conflict resolution, leadership development, and the impact of AI on human connection.
